Need coloured bath resurfacing in Brentry?

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Coloured bath resurfacing in Brentry, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Brentry clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Landlord and trade work in Brentry

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Brentry

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you cover the whole of Bristol?

We cover the whole UK, including Brentry and the rest of Bristol. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Brentry

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
